The footage is in vlog.... for a vlog, ha! Yes, is an amusing pun I only just realised this moment, long after it was shot.
Was shot with the first Panasonic EVA1 in the country! But also I was using that day the Aputure Deity (which just for this, I ran straight into the Panasonic EVA1...
I just got emailed a notification that finally this is in Stock at B&H:

This might *maybe* just perhaps replace the Tascam DR70D as the best recorder at this price point...
Fun fact:* Lectrosonics UM250b*are legal here in NZ, but illegal in Australia!*:-o*(because it is 250mW. Compare that to say the very popular Sennheiser G3, which is 30mW!)
So yeah, I can't promise it will be illegal in your country (as it might be legal like it is for me in NZ), but hey, throw...
More info here about the SMWB (uses a single AA battery, a very small transmitter!):

And the info for the dual battery version...
Leaked: is a new Sound Devices MixPre-10T coming soon?
Would be a 10 track recorder priced somewhere between the MixPre-6 and 633, I assume. Further competition to the Zoom F8! (as while the MixPre-6 is great, there are still many reasons why people might prefer an F8 instead)...
Can you use both record trigger over SDI from the FS700, *and* jam time code into the Convergent Design Odyssey 7Q from an external time code box? (such as a Tentacle Sync, or any of the many other options)
Or in other words, can the Odyssey 7Q take *only* the record trigger (so it knows when...

Not just the F5 is missing (which is weird when the F55 & FS7 is included!)
But also the FS700 isn't there. Which I reckon odd when the C500 is on the list (as like the FS700, the C500 can't do...
Wondering about what low cost audio interface to get?
The top uses for it would be for ADR / voice overs / podcasts.
If I can get a hackintosh to work, I'd probably play around with Boom Recorder Lite as well with it (with perhaps looking to in the future, upgrade to a full on cart system based...
How do you go about getting the 4K license upgrade in 2017, & how much does it cost?
Just curious as there are some very appealing FS700 deals on eBay, but some of them are not 4K capable without the upgrade.
Combined with the price drop on the Shogun Inferno this makes it a damn tempting combo...

The struggle against temptation is real... At least soon I'll be broke again which makes it easier...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've been pondering which of the many time code options to invest in (as the choices have exploded lately due to NAB 2017!), and it seems like the "best" bang for buck option would be the Timecode Systems' UltraSync ONE bundle for US$915? (1 x :wave + 2 x UltraSync...
As I already do sound seriously, I'd like to get into the lucrative career of sound gripping, thus looking at grip gear to get... specifically these combo stands on Aliexpress (sorry, I can't afford anything better on my $10/day rate!). Anybody tried them before, what do they think of them...
Aputure is shipping their new microphone: "Aputure Deity" (meant to be a competitor
The Deity will retail at $369 USD or $429 in a kit with a Rycote Lyre shock handle.
Their launch video from yesterday:

ART PHANTOM II Pro or Rolls PB224? Which would you recommend for supplying XLR phantom power, any one used either?

For those looking at an alternative to the Zoom F8, I noticed that B&H has a "New Arrival", refurbished Rolland R-88 units selling at nearly half their launch price (I guess Zoom is providing some serious pricing pressure! They might even be new units, and only "refurbished" in name only?!)...
I've got my eye on a secondhand Sanken CS-1 that I'm considering buying. Wondering if it would be a wise decision for me, currently have a RODE NTG2 & Sennheiser ME66/K6 (& Oktava MK-012 hypercardiod I can freely borrow whenever from a friend just around the corner) paired with a Sound Devices...
